How Can I get this Simple Order Replace Strategy?

I've been asking for a fairly simple strategy for some time now with no luck. Wondering if I'm going about this the wrong way.

I just want a strategy that will open a position upon the TOUCH of a specific price, and the ability to include a stop and limit, just like a regular Entry Order, EXCEPT that IF it gets stopped out, it re-enters the SAME order again - same entry price, same stop and limit. That's it.

I started out asking for a more complicated strategy - simultaneous Entry orders above and below current, increasing profit target with each loss, etc. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=12495
Then, as I got no response, tried simplifying my requests until arriving at the one above.

I found one here viewtopic.php?f=31&t=2852
that looked like it was close to what I wanted, but found problems with it - it didn't enter upon "touch", but on "close", and worse, it shut off upon 1st entry, nullifying any stop or limit orders. So I asked if it could be fixed, with no response.

I understand that you folks are very busy and can't get to everyone's request immediately, so I had hoped that simplifying my request or asking for a fix on an existing strategy would help, but it's been a while with no response on either.

So, how can I get this done? I thought about paying for it, but I don't need it to be proprietary, anyone can use it for all I care. Would a donation do it? If so, how much - $5, $50, more? I haven't got a clue, but I AM getting desperate. I'm waking up every hour or 2 to replace my entry orders as they get stopped out and NEED to get this done. Am willing to pay if I HAVE to, just not sure how to go about it.

Once again, any help or advice anyone could give would be much appreciated.

Unfortunately I can not give you an estimate.
Number of requests pending is great, something like 600.

Hi, is this development still in the queue or has it been completed now? I'm also looking for code to automatically replace closed orders so would love to give this a try.
